Hakim Danish won this Sunday (the 21st) the Czech Grand Prix, the ninth round of the 2026 Moto3 season. In a lively race at the Brno circuit, the Malaysian rider, who defends the MSI team, showed strength by starting from 14th on the grid and climbing through the pack to secure his first victory in the entry class of the World Championship.

The runner-up position went to Brian Uriarte, a rider for Ajo who crossed the finish line just 0.466 seconds behind Danish. Máximo Quiles, the championship leader and rider for Aspar, completed the podium in third place. David Almansa, who had started from pole position, finished fourth with Intact GP, while Veda Pratama, from Team Asia, closed in the top five.

Álvaro Carpe, aboard an Ajo bike, finished the race in sixth place, followed by Marco Morelli, seventh on an Aspar bike. Joel Kelso, riding for GRYD, took eighth, while Scott Ogden of CIP crossed the line in ninth. Valentín Perrone, representing Tech3, completed the list of the top ten.

After the ninth round of the championship, Quiles remains at the top of Moto3 with 186 points, while Carpe sits second with 121 points. Uriarte stands third with 92, followed by Almansa in fourth with 89 points. The group of the five best on the standings also includes Morelli, who has accumulated 86 points.

The Moto3 returns to the track next weekend, when the Dutch Grand Prix will be held at the Assen circuit.
